lyrics

I hear that train a comin I hear that train a goin
sit right down at the table babe
I know you’re holding more than you’re showing
you got black aces up your sleeve
you call me on the phone then leave
you gave me keys to your cage now I’m like
a pile of daisies sitting on the interstate
bigger than a haystack burning in the Georgia rain

One day I was just a little girl, I woke up in this other world
I put red tulips on the grave of your trust
I pick them and I put them in a vase
they say it doesn’t but it does
I get a buzz from lookin’ at your face
you got me walking on moonshine
listening to ragtime
Out of my head, out of my mind

I hear that train a comin, I hear that train a goin
sitting on the edge of the beach, holding my head in the early morn

I stay in your harbor, though my ships got full sails
I stand on the edge of the bow all night
just to hear your saxophone wail

People ask me why I love the boy so
I reply that I may exactly know
it came to me slowly
this metaphor never fails
my life was a big empty building, babe
and you were a molotov cocktail
walking on moonshine
listening to ragtime

You stuck to me like a blood stain on a silk shirt
tough as killing floor blues
smooth as Mississippi John Hurt
tougher than a pit bull walking in a junkyard
barb wire wrapped around a Nascar

I hear that train a comin I hear that train a goin
sit right down at the table babe
I know you’re holding more than you’re showing
you got black aces up your sleeve
you call me on the phone then leave
you gave me keys to your cage now I’m like
a pile of daisies sitting on the interstate
bigger than a haystack burning in the Georgia rain
